likely our last snow day

We've had the most mild winter this year that when the kids woke up to snow the first week of February, they were squealing with joy! I couldn't get their snow clothes on fast enough and they were out the door by 7 AM to play in it. Lyla hates her gloves but thankfully still fits in this fleece onesie that has mittens. They worked together building a mini snowman on the patio before I made it outside with them. We had our lawn aerated in the fall so now that the snow is melted, my patio is covered in what looks like massive amounts of dog poop thanks to that snowman. haha 

Liam has become quite the snowman builder! Most of these balls he rolled entirely by himself and just asked for helping lifting them on top of one another. I love that every time it snows, he doesn't just want to build one snowman but our whole family. It's the cutest! Even Lyla was walking back and forth pointing at each one and saying "dada noman, n nowman, momma noman, lala noman". I only had one hat and scarf to use and asked Liam which snowman should wear it ... he picked the dad. haha

Catching melting snow drips in a paint pail ... multi purpose! Those things make a genius outside toy for kids. ;)

Trying to catch snow on her mittens to eat!

I hate when Nic has to commute to work in the snow because I worry about him running with the crazy bulls on the interstate. I almost rejoice these days waking up to dry streets but I sure love how much it entertains these two. It's a toss up! Likely our last snow day of the season.
